Monty gotta stop waiting until we are down 15+ to use a timeout. Or until the other team goes on like a 10+-0 run. Especially on the 2nd of a back to back.

Sort of like when Popovich called a time out when the Spurs were down 10-4 to the Suns.

I'm not sure why it took so long for Nader and the Suns to choose arthroscopic surgery. The knee would have probably been nearly recovered without the delay.

Maybe they were hoping it would get better without it.

That was a block by Ayton. Monty should have challenged.

WTF is Booker doing? He dribbles into a turnover, gets his ass blocked then just holds the ball for 8 seconds before throwing up an air ball.

had multiple chances to take the lead and are probably about to fall back by six or seven on the next possession.

2 turnovers in a row because of one on one. Pass the ball,move it to the open man.

That turnover is on the ref and the assistant coach that talked Monty out of challenging it. He could have called a blocking foul but failing that, he should have at least noticed that the ball went off the defenders foot. It was pretty clear, even the Knicks announcers pointed it out.

It was predictable and we lost the ball. Bad calls happen on the road and Booker made that bad call easier to make putting himself in a bad position.

Booker kept us in this in the first half but he’s been just bad in the second.

Look the Suns are best when moving the ball. When Booker and Paul go one on one it takes them out of their game.especially when they do it on back to back possessions

Cam Johnson 0-6 from three.

And shoots again and misses the basket.
